Craptactular Weather
What a crappy week (or so) of weather.
Almost a foot of snow last week then rain and sleet on Monday nite, for which I was the only one who rode out to the Frog (damn karaoke and 9-5 worker drones). Chad had "issues" with the scoot, big surprise, and was being chauffeured around by Melissa. Mr "I like Frog, you can talk there" (because there isn't anybody there to talk to/with!) drove as well.
So with the absence of MerryMac we abandoned the Frog and I rode up to Delilahs. Fun ride, sleet and rain pelting the bare face, a simple reminder of having to get a new helmet. D's was ok, haven't been there in ages. Not the same when you're not drinking. If you're not gonna drink or don't drink, there's no need to go there.
Wow, 50's on Wednesday and rain. Yipee. Coolest thing was standing at the front door at work and seeing a wall of rain headed east on the street right towards the hotel. Weirdest thing I've seen since that time back home when it was pouring in the backyard and clear in the front.
Woke to freezing rain and rode bike to El in sleet. Nothing but rain downtown, eventually turning to sleet then snow. In the 20's on way home and sure enough, fucking lock on bike was frozen. Motherfucker. And that lock de-icer crap you use on car door locks doesn't work for shit. $1.10 for coffee again.
Gonna be a cold-ass weekend. Teen highs and single digit lows. Hope Chad can get his scoot running for a Cold Weather Challenge ride. Off three days in a row again and gonna need to get out of the house, at least until the Pats-Indy game. Oh yeah, and kickin this wagon ride to the curb come midnight Saturday.
